Pity Party of 1?

I'm having one of those moments....you know.....the kind of moments that happen every so often, where you are the president and sole member of your own pity party. Well....the meeting is in session...and the topic....PERFECTION.

I despise the word Perfection. I despise the concept of Perfection. I despise having to live up to the world's idea of Perfection. The only thing I am perfect in is my imperfection! I am 100% comfortable with stating that I am not perfect, my husband is not perfect, my kids aren't perfect, my house isn't perfect, my car isn't perfect, my bank account isn't perfect but guess what....NEITHER ARE ANY OF YOU!

I don't want someone to be friends with me because of what I have, what I can get them, where I work, or my social status (LOL- that one's obviously not an issue). If you don't want to be friends with me because I cuss, make /laugh at stupid jokes, have stinky breath or fart too much....then it's YOUR loss! I'm not worried about it....but don't judge too harshly....because although I may have an immature sense of humor and routinely put myself out there to be laughed at and made fun of....at least I am REAL and not pretending to be someone I am not. Which is more than I can say about most people.

With all of my goofy qualities, I have qualities that are severely lacking in today's society.....and if there are more of you out there - STAND UP AND MAKE IT OBVIOUS.....I am HONEST, FAIR and KIND. I am not a public good deed doer....so publically like a lot of the show ponies out grazing in the field...you know, the ones who are only kind for the benefit of onlookers, but then nasty behind closed doors when they don't think anyone is looking? Nope..not me....I am a "behind the scenes" kind of gal...when I do something....I am not posting about it on Facebook so everyone will tell me how wonderful I am....That's not the way I roll.

Now that I've gotten that out of the way....My real reason for venting. I totally despise it when self-righteous people stand up on their own personal podiums, with their 'holier than thou' attitudes, refusing to see or admit to their own faults, while they blast their garbage mouths on and on about other people. Especially when these same people profess themselves to be Christians. Probably my #1 pet peeve....next to not using dental floss. I am not even just talking about one situation....I am talking about a multitude of issues all happening at the same time! I want to scream!
No one likes 'DRAMA'. Trust me....I am actually allergic to it......but I will stand up for what's right....even if it involves a little bit of drama. I won't side with the wrong people just because I am worried that my little clique (thankGODidon'thaveone) will be mad at me or I might get flack for it. I am not going to alienate someone who is obviously in need because they are too hyper and don't fit in very well. No. Christians don't behave that way. Christian people will put themselves out there for critisicm...whether or not it is the socially acceptable thing to do....because it is the RIGHT thing to do. Christian people will notice when someone, be it an adult or a child, is in need and GO TO them. Not purposefully ignoring and alienating people.....then hiding behind their veil of self-righteousness... posting all their bible quotes and refusing to acknowledge how they treat people and looking at the bigger picture.

I am TERRIFIED of being a hypocrite. We are all hypocrites at times....and will probably continue to be so...but I don't believe I am EVER unfair to people. Right is Right....which leaves little wiggle room for being a hypocrite. Beleive it or not...even if I don't like you (odd for me since I like everyone) ...I'll be fair to you.

I have a wish for today....that wish is for all you 'cliquers' out there to be able to see the point of view of someone else outside your clique. PUT YOURSELF IN SOMEONE ELSES SHOES. Even if you are like Cinderella and have defectively small midget feet. Try it....you might be surprised. I have a wish for myself too....and I can neither confirm nor deny that it involves Gerard Butler.
